Description
Is vaping the future of finance?
In this episode of Internet Explorers, Jess and Josh explore Puffpaw's "vape-to-earn" model, discussing its mission to incentivize quitting nicotine through token rewards and the sustainability of its tokenomics.
Next, they dive into FriendTech, questioning its future after the team’s decision to halt development, and reflect on the platform’s missed potential. Jess & Josh then cover Drip, a Solana NFT platform helping artists build communities, highlighting its impact on the NFT space.
The hosts also touch on the crypto community’s obsession with being “early” and how that dynamic is changing as the industry matures. Wrapping up, they discuss the importance of value-driven applications and emerging trends in Web3 innovation. Jess & Josh finish up the episode with a lightning round, as is tradition!
